Meet Hot Links

That time didn’t just break Manuel’s record, but established her as the fastest female ever in the 100 yard freestyle. She broke the record by a whopping 0.46 seconds as well to take almost a half-second chunk off the record.

Caeleb Dressel swam only two races at the 2014 U.S. Junior Nationals in Irvine, California, as he prepares for the senior version next week in the same pool. That was the prelims of the boys’ 50 free, and the finals of the boys’ 50 free. In finals, he won in 22.36, beating out James Jones (23.04) and Patrick Park (23.07).

Connor Stirling won the B Final in 23.24, and Gage Kohner won the C Final in 23.26.

As I said elsewhere: Caeleb Dressel is from some other planet. I think we are just witnessing the future of sprint freestyle. He is much like A. Ervin in 2000. And yes, he cruised in the last few meters. Not good news for Phelps if he wants to swim the 4×100 free relay final in Rio. Ps the jump he made at 1:00 into the video!

He is the huge talented sprinter the Us was waiting for years ! I am not discrediting Adrian , Feigen or Ervin of course ; i love these guys a lot . He is from another league defenetly . I dream allready to see him on the 400 free relay next year in Kazan : Adrian , Feigen , Dressel + Phelps could be absolutely amazing relay team to watch .
